Yes it's fine by me this month @frazzle, I'm highly suspicious of my chart! Great idea for a present, I was just reading about the Chinese medical way to read BBT on your chart and it looks as though acupuncture (as well as diet and some exercises) can really help. 👍

Happy birthday @Betty!!
Crappy news re BFN but you seem to be taking it well. I hope you have a lovely day with your DH and little boy xx

@rather things are much better thank you. Though there is one thing bothering me about something DP said about me fucking the boys and his lives up, then told me I have taken that comment too personally 🤔 he literally said those words. I've got them written as a text so I'm not imagining things, But I'm trying to just let it slide, otherwise he'll kick off again.

DP is taking DS2 to football this morning then both boys are off to their dad's for the rest of the weekend. For the first time in ages we've not planned anything so we are doing sweet FA all weekend.
DP suggested we go looking at wedding party venues but I said no! We are doing NOTHING!!

12DPO now and just want Tuesday to hurry up now as I just wanna put this cycle behind me now.

Good news, my mum is going to pay for acupuncture! I said to her for my 40th in June I don't want anything apart from a baby that lives and she can't get me that but she could help, so she agreed to give me my pressie early and I've booked my first session for two weeks time!

Happy birthday CakeWineFlowers Betty... my bfp didn’t show till day AF was due so there is still time hun... I’m sure a cheeky champers wouldn’t hurt though.

BettySwoll0cks · 16/02/2019 09:24

FRER is literally the whitest thing I've ever seen in my life 🤣 champers it is!! Have a good day everyone x

tigsyboo · 16/02/2019 09:03

Happy birthday Betty!
FX for the FRER but loving your plan B xx

BettySwoll0cks · 16/02/2019 08:57

So for my birthday, I peed on a CB digi (bfn), the rest of the day looks like a bit of Paw Patrol with DS in our pj's and then a dog walk before some friends come over for coffee at 11. Then off to the coast this arvo to see my Uncle and family for dinner. 😊

FRERs just arrived in the mail, will do one of those later. If that's bfn too then I'm set going to enjoy a glass of champagne tonight and just conclude that it's a mystery why I feel so nauseous all the time.

BettySwoll0cks · 16/02/2019 08:51

@rather oh gosh is your dog ok? I guess your DH won't do that again 😬

ratherbeshowjumping · 16/02/2019 07:25

Morning everyone,

Worst night sleep ever as DH had the fantastic idea to feed an 8 month old puppy leftover Chinese at 9pm... cue an entire night of D&V from him 🤢

@BettySwoll0cks you've lost it 🤪 I'm sorry it was a negative but you don't need me to tell you that means nothing right now.
Ps. Happy Birthday 🎉 what have you got planned for today?

@Kinsters so glad you're having fun! How have you found Val d'Isere?

@Rose68 have a fab weekend, hope you manage to get some bding in! I have an old moisturiser pot too to use.

@Frazzlerock how are things ok with you & DP now?

edidxb · 15/02/2019 22:11

@betty sorry it was negative but as you know.....that doesn't mean anything at this stage!
@kinsters skiing is brutal! Hope you are having fun. When do you go home?
@pegase happy half term!

Pegase · 15/02/2019 21:11

I have a hierarchy depending on how likely it is to get a worthwhile result. So cheapie strip test then FRER then Clearblue week predictor is the premium only!

BettySwoll0cks · 15/02/2019 21:09

@Pegase I know 🙈 I was expecting my 6 FRERs to have arrived in the post today though, so I was fixed on testing in the morning. The post prob won't arrive till tomorrow afternoon now, so I went out to get one to test with in the morning then cracked and went early.... pathetic really!!

Pegase · 15/02/2019 19:37

Oh man betty that's a lot of money to throw away on a clearblue!!!

TwittleBee · 15/02/2019 19:28

Oh Rose bless his enthusiasm! Yeah I have a little designated pee pot too actually, could you take anything discreet?

You enjoying it though kin ?

Oh Betty we have all been there!!!!!

Rose68 · 15/02/2019 19:27

@Betty wait until the morning! FX for you! x

tigsyboo · 15/02/2019 19:18

Yep @BettySwoll0cks - you've lost your marbles!! 🙈

BettySwoll0cks · 15/02/2019 18:50

Can anyone please tell me why I just did a CB digi at 3 days before AF is due, not with FMU, and expected anything but a Not Pregnant? Am I actually going insane? I think I must be 🤦🏼‍♀️

Kinsters · 15/02/2019 14:07

Congratulations Buggles! So nice to see everyone getting their BFPs. Fx for the rest of us soon.

Rose you can pee in the little packet the stick comes in and dip it in that. I always just take my pee pot though, it's an old moisturiser tub so doesn't look too out of place.

I'm hoping all this skiing has given me good blood flow to my pelvis! Bloody knackering!

Rose68 · 15/02/2019 14:06

We are going to Canterbury, only for 2 nights, but it should be good. We will have all 4 of us in one room, but should be able to dtd once the boys are asleep, not that it’s ov time but ever since I mentioned smep DH keeps on asking about it 😂

TwittleBee · 15/02/2019 13:33

Well I'm waiting for my sister to go see the solicitor again about the next move which I believe will just be another letter so nothing exciting Rose - last we checked fences were still up too. Where you going away btw? I'm desperate for a weekend away!

Rose68 · 15/02/2019 13:23

@Indreamland I don’t really understand the flashing smiley either, I have used the cb digital tests, but only the ones that go straight from blank circle to smiley face. 8 or 9 days does seem a long time though for a flashing smiley. I don’t know if it’s possible for it to miss the peak?

@Tigsy I get discharge like that every month half way through my LP whether I’m pregnant or not. But if you don’t normally get it, maybe it’s a good sign.

@Twittle what is going on with your woodland now?

No news here, except we are going away for the weekend, so I’m meant to be packing, not sitting here on my fat arse on MN. Oh yeah, except I have got the green opk sticks from Amazon, CB digital ov tests are way too expensive. I thought I would have some fun weeing on them even if it doesn’t get me anywhere. But now I think I have to dip them in a pot of wee which makes life a bit more complicated, esp in a hotel 😩

TwittleBee · 15/02/2019 12:16

So sorry I am so shit at catching up unless I am at my desk.

jeez Frazzle feel close to tears reading about your DP twisting it round to be about him when you are clearly upset Sad He may be great at supporting your kids and have loads of other brilliant qualities but that does not excuse him for showing you no compassion or understanding. It is so unfair how he treats you when he is down too.

I agree, it is pointless you to continue temping. If you don’t get a proper temp drop till after AF then not sure what you will expect to see. Maybe a temp rise? But I honestly found temping in the TWW horrible stressful and that is why DH asked me to longer temp last year (pre MMC)

Tigsy I know you know this and you both are just going crazy as it is TWW (all been there) but really is soooo early too plus ICs are so shit! I didn’t get a BFaintP on one till about 20dpo! That discharge is actually similar to wait I have when I am PG…. not wanting to get hopes up though as it is sooo early for symptoms.

Betty – same goes to you about the ICs too as tigsy FX for that birthday BFP

BettySwoll0cks · 15/02/2019 12:16

Temping, not telling 🙄

BettySwoll0cks · 15/02/2019 12:15

@Frazzle I'm just telling now out of morbid curiosity. My chart is still a crock of shit so in a way, I'm hoping I'm not pg this month because I'll end up worrying about my low LP temps. I read somewhere that low post-Ov temps equal 40% higher change of mc so that's handy!!

@rather I find FRERs are better, it's the ICs that don't give me anything until AF is due. Which is funny cos they're meant to be 10miu?
